intercooler piping 1200 bucks

so i take my car in over a month ago to get the intercooler piping ran and the downpipe made. tell me a 1000 max to have it all done. well i go in wearing my military uniform to check on things about a week later and the car hadnt moved and they said they were to busy so i said thats ok. well the next day i get a call saying its going to now cost me 2000 dollars. now isnt that kinda funny. so i said **** that blah blah well i got the dp made for 470 and now their saying the intercooler piping is gonna be 1200 because they have to relocate the throttle body. i know it dont cost that damn much to add an elbow off my delete plate. what do you guys think.

they just need to only have technical threads show up on the front page IMO.

back on topic, i think $1200 for piping is pretty steep. I'd look around at other shops if it were me.

You're contributing to it. Back on topic and I won't lock this.
